Gardening Under Difficulties.

The Chinese are a very industrious
people, aud nothing is allowed to 60 TO
waste that can possibly be utilized. As
the Empire of China is the largest on
the globe. and contains nearly half Of
the entire number Of the human race.
the necessity of economy is very sp-
parent. They not only cultivate the
land, but all of The lakes ponds and
marshes are gardens in which aquatic
plants, suitable for food, are largely
raised. Among these the water chest
nut is pre-emlnent, and is said TO be OF
a very palatable and wholesome nature.
In a narrative Of Lold Macartney's En-
bassay to China, it is related that his
iOrdship's attendants, i'm passing through
part of that Empire. saw a man culti-
waiting the side of a precipice, and on
examination, they found be had a rope
fastened around his waist, which was
secured at the top OF the mountain, and
by which he let himself down 10 any
part OF the pTecipice where a few yards
OF available ground gave him encourage
ment to plant his vegetables and bis
corn. The whole of the cultivated spots,
which were at some distance from each
other, appeared to be not more than half
an acre, and neal the bottom Of the
precipice, on a hillock, he had little
hut, where he supported q wife and
several children in this hazardous man
ner.

fag) with cloth from the lining Of his
uniform. When l asked him why he
spent so much time to mend that old
flag, his answer was, that as we are so
far from the base of supplies he could
not get a new one, and when the
battery went into action with thirty
six horses and six guns, he always
stuck the pike of the guidon into the
ground where the battery was to form,
and even if the man who rode the
leading horse was killed or disabled,
and the noise of the battle WAS so
great the bugle call could not be heard,
the horses would wheel around the flag
and execute the manRver known as
"by left into line," and bring the
muZzleS of the six guns Oh q line with
the flag, and then as soon as the guns
were unlimbered, he would again place
it about 200 PAGES to the rear, and the
horses would gallop to the rear again
with the caissons and halt again on a
line with it.

Transplanting Trees.

Nursery grown trees give, as a rule,
better satisfaction than do those taken
up from their native localities. This is
principally owing to the fact that the
roots of plants growing wild extend
further from the stems than those raised
IN nurseries, where they have been once
or ofteneT tTansplanted. Yet, with a
little extra care, native trees may be
transplanted successfully. The Amerl-
can Agriculturist advises that specimens
growing in dry and open situations
should be selected. AS many and as
much Of the roots, especially the fine,
fbrOus ones, that can be dug up should
he preserved, and care must be taken
not to expose these to the sun and winds
more than is unavoidable. The tops
have to be cut back severely, removing
One-hslf or two-thirds of all the
branches, and this is best done before
planting the trees. The holes should
have been dug previously, and whenever
practicable the trees should be taken uD
and planted on cloudy or damp day.

foI 200 yesrs, aud even longer. Ghee
is an article of great commercial impOr-
tance in many psrts of India, being *
ported to all the sea coasts of eastern
aud southern ASA to the extent of 400
20 500 tons annually. According to the
statistical authorities, /, ,236, ,433 pounds
of ghes were exported from India in ,he
1879 so.
All but the poorest classes in India,
whether Hindoo OF Mohsmmedans. use
ghee for ordinary cooking purposes.
Where the English cook uses butter,
suet or lard, the Indian uses ghee. In
frying potatoes, IN cooking dai, in cook
ing sweetmeaJs, in preparing tasteful
dishes, the upper and middle classes
always use ghee, which is also rubbed
over Chupaties, the fiat flour cakes serv-
ing for bread, and poured over rice at
the time of eating. One of the secret g
of the fine flavor of India made currie )
is the use Of good ghee. And neither
HindOOs nor MOhammedians will touch
any food that is cooked with ghee which
they believe to be adulterated with pigs
or cows fas.

the purest eatable thing under the sun.

Of all luxurious food, is allowed to take

other grand occasions public dinners
must be given, or the offending party
will be punished by accommodation

served at these banquets are prepared
with ghee. At many festivals aims con-
sisting OF rice, dai, and sweetmeats are
given TO the Brabmans. ard must be

How and When to Plant Seeds.

The fIst important step taken to-

Pooling a Farmer.

A Franklin county farmer bought
some Bohemian oats-10 bushels at SO
a bushel. The farmer considered him
self sharp. he gave his note condition
ally. In compliance with these condi-
tions the agents wrote on the back of it.
This note not to be paid until the
contract has been complied with, y
aff1xing their signatures to it. Then
they went off, leaving the oats and
written contract with the purchaser
and taking the note. which of course,
was not negotiable in that shape.
A week afterward one of the agents
went back to Farmer KS fam and told
the shrewd farmer that the agents had
made a mistake that they had written
the prOviso, which was to make the
farmer secure, oD the wrong paper.
Instead of it being placed on the note it
should have been put on the contract.
they explained, for the farmer could
hold the contract aud always have the
written evidence of the agreement the
agents had entered into, while with It
upon the note he had nothing TO sub
stantiate his claims. Farmer X bit.
and deeply, too. He gave the agent the
contract, and the agreement was writ
ten upon it, and signed by the agents.
He signed new, clean note, and the
old one was destroyed. AS affairs now
are the note can be negotiated at any
time without much trouble, and Farmer
y and his contract cannot stay payment
of it if demanded, as he has discovered
to his sorrow.
